I want to upgrade from my 3870x2 but want to hold out until ATI's next card,
I can't find anything on Google or here reguarding ATI's next card. Does anyone have any idea as to when we will see it? I heard rumors months ago about summer 09 but I would assume we would have heard something by now, so maybe a Fall 09 release now?

The next high-end ATI card due out is the rumoured RV790 to be released in 40nm as the Radeon HD 49xx series. It should be out around late Spring/early Summer.

If you're talking about a new architecture completely (most likely candidate for HD 58xx), that would be Rx8xx series cores which won't be out until late Fall '09 and should be DX11 capable.
